The University of Waterloo will host an award-winning author and presenter tomorrow for a talk that will give people skills for healthy sexual decision-making
Mike Domritz's presentation, entitled Can I Kiss You, will cover healthy dating, consent, bystander intervention and sexual assault awareness.
“All of our gender equity initiatives are built upon a foundation of safety and security for everyone,” said Feridun Hamdullahpur, president and vice-chancellor of Waterloo, who will deliver opening remarks. “Everything we do to create positive, safe, inclusive conditions for our community members puts us in better alignment with our values. What’s more, it puts us closer to achieving our goal of being the most innovative university in the world."
Date: Tuesday, October 6, 2015
Time: 3:50 p.m.
Location: Federation Hall, University of Waterloo
The talk is just part of the University’s ongoing work on issues of gender equity. Earlier this year, Waterloo accepted an invitation from UN Women to be part of the HeForShe IMPACT 10x10x10 campaign. HeForShe is a global effort to remove the social and cultural barriers that prevent women and girls from achieving their potential.
